super-celebrity spawns," seeks to further that fame by initially releasing
her music electronically, keeping with the trend of her development online
supremacy. When asked why she has distinct to venture into the
always-competitive pop music industry at this time, Amber Lee thoughtfully
replied, "Most people live me as the Obama Girl, and that's merely part of
who I am. 'Obama Girl' is my character, and it's both a part and a cause I
love dear, but Amber Lee, the singer, is completely separate. I require to
establish that I have natural endowment, showcase my voice, and let people see for
themselves that I'm more than simply the character I portray."

Curve Records commented, "We recognised right forth that Amber Lee had a
